8/184 Middle North Coombe Farmhouse -
II
Farmhouse. Circa late C17/early C18, possibly a remodelling of an earlier building, late C20 renovations. Whitewashed and rendered, probably cob and stone, left end wall rebuilt after collapse in the 1930s; thatched roof, gabled at left end, hipped at right end; end stacks. Plan: Unusual plan form: a single depth arrangement with heated rooms, one to the left and one to the right to of an entrance to right of centre which gives into an axial passage parallel to other front wall with unheated service rooms to the rear of the passage. The passage also gives access to a straight stair between the service rooms and right hand room. The right hand room has been a kitchen and has a small probably later outshut with a catslide roof at the rear. The present plan may be a modification of a C17 3 room and passage plan. Exterior: 2 storeys. Asymmetrical 4 window front with a C20 thatched, boarded porch to right of centre; further doorway at extreme right into store room. C20 fenestration of timber casements. Interior: The right hand room has a chamfered cross beam with runout stops and an open fireplace with a roughly-chamfered scroll-stopped lintel. Left hand room not inspected; plank partitioning to service rooms. Roof: Not inspected, said to have straight principal rafters to surviving old roof trusses.
